Post by: jT Racing on January 16, 2007, 04:36 PM: at first glance i would say akisu, or a different name on an akisu frameset.

Title: Re: Any idea's what this is.
Post by: jT Racing on January 18, 2007, 06:07 PM: if it was a redline, it would
a. have a redline serial with a big 'redline' stamped in it
b. have a gusset
c. a machined headtube(2 see as two rings of extra metal top and bottom of headtube)
d. have a downtube that is flush at the bottom with the bottom of the BB
e. i think(but am not sure) the ends of the stays are rounded and sealed.

Post by: RATTY on January 18, 2007, 10:35 PM: It looks Akisu to me as well, specially them forks, I have a matching pair of them, and its not redline looking,
Title: Re: Any idea's what this is.
Post by: jT Racing on January 18, 2007, 11:56 PM: it may well be cro-mo because it's tig welded and old. i have seen akisu stuff that is 4130.

Title: Re: Any idea's what this is.
Post by: Bob_Acid on January 19, 2007, 01:34 PM: It all goes back to Towns' original answer, its another one of those generic Akisu bikes that loads of people used :daumenhoch:
